Use the Managed Apps report for insights

Completed

After you deploy an Enterprise App Catalog app, the Managed Apps report helps you verify what happened on the device. It provides a device-level view of apps that are installed, not installed, or available for install, and includes details such as the application name, version, resolved intent, and installation status. This view makes it useful for checking whether a catalog app reached the target device and whether the expected version is in place.

Access the Managed Apps report

To access the Managed Apps report in the Microsoft Intune admin center, go to Devices > All devices, select the device you want to review, and then select Managed Apps. This action opens the device-level report for the selected device.

Use the Managed Apps report to review, troubleshoot, and support lifecycle decisions

The Managed Apps report helps administrators confirm deployments, troubleshoot problems, and support app lifecycle decisions. After assigning a catalog app, you can use the report to verify whether the app reached the intended device, whether the resolved intent matches the expected assignment, whether the app is installed, and whether the version matches the package you intended to deploy. This report is especially helpful for Enterprise App Catalog apps because Intune also identifies those apps in the report with the same core device-level details.

The report is also useful when users say an app is missing, not updated, or not working as expected. In those cases, it helps show whether the app is installed, only available for install, or still showing an older version. That makes it a useful starting point for investigating assignment, update, or installation issues on a specific device. For Windows app scenarios, this device-level view is particularly useful because Win32 app deployment depends on the Intune management extension, and a single device can behave differently from the broader deployment summary.

It also supports update and retirement planning. During updates, it helps confirm that devices are moving to the newer version. During retirement, it helps identify whether older apps are still present on specific devices. This visibility is especially useful in Enterprise App Catalog workflows, where administrators often need to verify whether a new superseding app has replaced an older version on the target device.

One practical way to use this report is to compare the version and installation status of the same catalog app across a few test devices after deployment. If the expected version appears and the status shows the app as installed, the rollout is likely progressing correctly. If not, the report gives you a clear starting point for checking assignments, update timing, or device-specific issues.
